Chapter 27 Don’t be afraid, girl
Late at night, when the moon is dark and the wind is high, it is the best time to kill.
In the east chamber of Fu'an Hall, Liu Si's mourning hall was lit with dim candles.
The night wind blew into the hall from outside the door, blowing the white flags flying, and extinguishing the candles. It stretched the shadow of the woman who was kneeling in front of the coffin, wearing sackcloth and dozing drowsily.
In the quiet night, two men in black jumped into the courtyard with light steps.
They walked to the door of the mourning hall and looked at each other. One was watching at the door, and the other took out the sword in his hand and stabbed the woman's vest directly.
The sword blade passed through her chest, killing her with one blow, and the woman fell to the ground silently.
The man in black pulled out the bloody sword and was about to step forward to check——
With a "squeak" sound, the door to the west wing opposite was suddenly opened from the inside.
A round figure stumbled out of the room.
"Help, save me... Magpie said, if I am caught, I will find a way to have the officials bring me here. When you come to kill people, you will save me and leave. Help me go... help me go quickly...
"
It's Feng Qi.
Seeing that the men in black didn't move, Feng Qi was afraid that they didn't hear clearly, so he repeated it emphatically, "It's Magpie! I am Magpie's sworn brother, did you hear clearly? Save me!"
When he approached, the man in black guarding the door drew his sword and stabbed Feng Qi in the heart!
Feng Qi opened his eyes wide in shock.
Only when he was about to die did he realize that the last way Magpie had arranged for him to escape was actually a dead end.
The moment the long sword in the man's hand was about to pierce Feng Qi's chest.
There was a "ding" sound, and the sword blade was hit by something unknown and made a crisp sound.
The sword edge was slightly deflected and pierced into Feng Qi's shoulder.
"Ah!!!" Feng Qi screamed like a slaughtering pig.
The courtyard of Fu'an Hall also lit up torches.
A group of government officials rushed out from behind the coffins stacked in the corner and surrounded the two men in black.
Mu Huaian fell from the sky wearing a bright red embroidered gold suit.
The light of the torch shone on his face, outlining his handsome features.
He was throwing stones carelessly in his hand. Apparently, the hidden weapon that just missed the edge of the sword was the stone in his hand.
Such skill made the man in black suddenly take half a step back, with a bit of fear on his face.
The man in black in the room changed his face slightly when he saw what happened outside.
He directly pulled off the mourning hat on the head of the person he stabbed to death, only to realize that it was not a woman at all, not even a person, but a dummy wearing mourning clothes and wrapped in dead pig skin!
Fell into a trap.
"Feng Qi, you have a good life. Thank you Shen Lingxi."
Outside the house, Mu Huaian smiled at Feng Qi, "You are so stubborn and eager to die. Shen Lingxi guessed that you must have a back-up plan and asked me to lead people to guard here. If not, you would really be dead."
.”
Feng Qi didn't expect that it would be Shen Lingxi who saved him. His screams suddenly stopped and he looked behind Ya Chai.
At this moment, Shen Lingxi was walking out from behind the coffin together with the man dressed as a scholar.
She was wearing plain clothes, with white beaded flowers in her black hair. Her pretty little face was as delicate as a dodder flower. It was impossible to tell that she was someone who had figured out that the magpie was dead, defrauded him, and then saved him.
He is a woman who is so wise that she is almost a demon.
Shen Lingxi looked at Feng Qi timidly and tried to persuade her, "Mr. Feng, I told you a long time ago. The hexagram said that only by telling Mu Shaoqing the truth can we avoid this difficulty, but you didn't listen...
"
"Listen, I listen." Feng Qi really believed it this time, "I said... I told everything... As long as I know, I will tell everything..."
When the two men in black heard what he said, they looked at each other. One of them quickly lifted up his sleeve and shot a cloud-piercing arrow.
With a "whoosh" sound, the cloud-piercing arrow drew a streak of fire in the night sky like a shooting star.
At the same time, two men in black held sword flowers and immediately broke out in the direction of Feng Qi!
The moment Mu Huaian saw the Cloud Piercer Arrow, his expression changed slightly.
"They also have reinforcements, so they can fight quickly and catch everyone alive."
The government officials swarmed forward, and Mu Huaian also drew his sword and joined the battle.
They were fighting fiercely here, and Shen Lingxi would not come forward to seek death. She lifted up her skirt and found an inconspicuous corner to hide and watch.
As soon as they hid, they saw about ten more men in black jumping into the courtyard and started fighting with Mu Huaian and the Yamen.
Shen Lingxi saw Feng Qi deliberately delaying time in the afternoon and guessed that the other party must have a back-up plan.
They bought thousands of gold incense, hired murderers, and made Magpies willing to commit suicide out of fear of crime, all just to silence Liu Si and his wife.
The chess was just one step away, and the Dali Temple and the Xiuyi Envoy were alarmed. How could we be willing to give up just like that?
As the saying goes, "The only way to see the end of the story is to kill Liu Si's wife, Zhao Afeng, as originally planned, and then pass the blame on to Magpie, whose body has not yet been found." Can the whole plan be considered complete?
Shen Lingxi guessed that the other party would definitely send another killer to kill Zhao Afeng.
But he didn't expect that so many experts would be sent.
Time was running out, and Mu Huaian brought almost the same number of yamen. The men in black had reinforcements, and they were already 50-50 outnumbered by the yamen.
The opponents were all killers, and their attacks were deadly and brutal. However, within two cups of tea, the Yamen's side was already in decline.
Shen Lingxi looked at Mu Huaian's skills. He was quite able to fight one against three, so he wasn't too worried.
After all, no matter how bad their side is, there is still Chu Yan standing by and has not taken action yet.
She remembered that his kung fu should be far superior to Mu Huaian's.
However, the thought just came up——
"Miss Shen, it turns out you are hiding here..."
Suddenly, a warm voice sounded particularly abruptly in the courtyard where swords and swords were ablaze.
Shen Lingxi followed the sound and saw a moon-white figure running towards her.
As he ran, he said to her in panic: "Don't be afraid, Miss Shen. It's dangerous here. I'll help you escape."
Shen Lingxi:???
Is this because she didn't die quickly enough?
The corner that no one paid attention to at first suddenly attracted the attention of many people because of this movement.
"It was her fault, kill that woman!" someone among the men in black said loudly.
Suddenly, two or three men in black pulled away from the battle and rushed towards Shen Lingxi.
Shen Lingxi: Thank you very much.
"Don't be afraid, girl, I will protect you."
Chu Yan ran up to Shen Lingxi, and without forgetting to apologize and say "I'm sorry," he grabbed her sleeves and dragged her staggering towards the gate of Fu'an Hall.
The two of them, one wearing a moon-white robe and the other wearing plain clothes, were running around in the courtyard, making them living targets.
Men in black were surrounding them one after another.
Shen Lingxi has never seen a man who can act better than her in her two lives.
He is obviously not weak in martial arts, but at this juncture, he still pretends to be powerless.
Holding someone back is comparable to seeking money and killing someone.
She was already thin and wearing a skirt, so she could not compete with the man's pace. She was dragged by Chu Yan and staggered for a few steps before she heard the sound of a sword piercing the air behind her.
Shen Lingxi subconsciously wanted to hide.
However, in the flash of lightning, a series of Chu Yan's actions flashed through her mind very quickly.
She thought of something and looked at Chu Yan's back without looking back. Instead of hiding, she staggered and slowed down.
"Shen Lingxi! Be careful!"
Behind him, Mu Huaian's anxious roar came.
Shen Lingxi turned around in a daze and saw a sharp sword, as powerful as a broken bamboo, stabbing her chest...
